Determining propensities to drive website target user activity

ABSTRACT

Users may arrive at a website via different digital channels. Users may also arrive at the website on different entry pages of the website. A propensity analyzer can, based on website activity data associated with a website, determine propensities of one or more of the digital channels, and/or one or more of the entry pages, to drive users to perform a target user activity during visits to the website. The propensity analyzer can generate recommendations for revising digital channels and/or entry pages to increase their propensities to drive users to perform the target user activity.

RELATED APPLICATIONS

This U.S. Patent Application claims priority to provisional U.S. Patent Application No. 62/953,021, entitled “Propensity of Target User Conversion Activity Based on Digital Channels,” filed on Dec. 23, 2019, the entirety of which is incorporated herein by reference.

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to analyzing activity data associated with a website, and more particularly to determining propensities of digital channels, and/or web pages of the website, to drive users to engage in a target user activity on the website.

BACKGROUND

Users can arrive at a website through a variety of digital channels. For example, a user may load the website by directly typing a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) for the website into a web browser. In other examples, users may load the website by clicking on paid advertisements or organic search results in search engines, clicking on banner advertisements displayed on other websites, or loading the website via other types of digital channels. Such digital channels can cause users to arrive at various entry pages of the website, such as a homepage of the website or other web pages that are focused on certain products or services.

An operator of a website may want users to perform a particular target user activity during visits to the website. As an example, an operator of an insurance website may want users to perform a target user activity of initiating a new insurance quote via the website. As another example, an operator of a website for a streaming video service may want users to perform a target user activity of signing up for a streaming video account via the website.

Some digital channels may be more successful than other digital channels at driving users to perform a target user activity during visits to a website. Similarly, some types of entry pages may be more successful than other types of entry pages at driving users to perform a target user activity on a website. However, it can be difficult to determine the propensities of different digital channels, and/or different types of entry pages, to drive users to perform the target user activity. Accordingly, it can also be difficult to identify opportunities to revise web pages and/or digital channels based on their respective propensities to drive the target user activity, or to determine how to revise such web pages and/or digital channels to increase their propensities to drive the target user activity. It can similarly be difficult to determine how to prioritize resources associated with web pages or digital channels, based on their respective propensities to drive the target user activity.

The example systems and methods described herein may be directed toward mitigating or overcoming one or more of the deficiencies described above.

SUMMARY

Described herein are systems and methods that can determine propensities of one or more digital channels, and/or one or more groups of entry pages on a website, to drive users to perform a target user activity on the website. The target user activity may be a specific activity that an operator of the website wants to drive users to perform while the users are browsing the website. The systems and methods described herein can use website activity data to determine relative propensities of one or more digital channels, and/or one or more groups of entry pages, to drive the target user activity. In some examples, the systems and methods described herein can also, based on the determined propensities, recommend changes to digital channels and/or web pages that are predicted to increase the propensities of the digital channels and/or web pages to drive the target user activity.

According to a first aspect, a method can include receiving, by one or more processors, website activity data indicative of use of a website by one or more user devices. The method can also include identifying, by the one or more processors and based on the website activity data, instances of a target user activity occurring during visits to the website that originate via one or more digital channels. The method can further include determining, by the one or more processors and based on the website activity data, respective propensities, of combinations of the one or more digital channels and one or more entry pages of the website, to drive the target user activity during visits to the website. The method can also include identifying, by the one or more processors and based on the respective propensities, a first combination, of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages, associated with a first propensity to drive the target user activity, and a second combination, of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages, associated with a second propensity to drive the target user activity, wherein the second propensity is higher than the first propensity. The method can additionally include generating, by the one or more processors, a revision recommendation indicative of one or more changes to the first combination, based on one or more attributes of the second combination, that are predicted to increase the first propensity.

According to a second aspect, one or more computing device can include one or more processors and memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more computing devices to perform operations. The operations can include receiving website activity data indicative of use of a website by one or more user devices, and identifying, based on the website activity data, instances of a target user activity occurring during visits to the website that originate via one or more digital channels. The operations can further include determining, based on the website activity data, respective propensities of a set of entry pages of the website to drive the target user activity during visits to the website. The operations can also include identifying, based on the respective propensities, a first entry page type associated with a first propensity to drive the target user activity, and a second entry page type associated with a second propensity to drive the target user activity, wherein the second propensity is higher than the first propensity. The operations can additionally include generating a revision recommendation indicative of one or more changes to the first entry page type or at least one of the one or more digital channels, based on at least one of content or design elements of the second entry page type that are predicted to increase the first propensity.

According to a third aspect, one or more non-transitory computer-readable media can store computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations. The operations can include receiving website activity data indicative of use of a website by one or more user devices, and identifying, based on the website activity data, instances of a target user activity occurring during visits to the website that originate via one or more digital channels. The operations can also include determining, based on the website activity data, digital channel propensities of the one or more digital channels to drive a target user activity during visits to the website, and entry page propensities of a set of entry pages of the website to drive the target user activity during the visits to the website. The operations can further include determining, based on the digital channel propensities and the entry page propensities, respective propensities of combinations of the one or more digital channels and one or more entry pages of the website to drive the target user activity. The operations can additionally include identifying, based on the respective propensities, a first combination, of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages, associated with a first propensity to drive the target user activity and a second combination, of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages, associated with a second propensity to drive the target user activity, wherein the second propensity is higher than the first propensity. The operations can also include generating a revision recommendation indicative of one or more changes to the first combination, based on one or more attributes of the second combination, that are predicted to increase the first propensity.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 shows an example 100 of a website propensity analysis system. A server 102 can host a website 104 that includes a set of web pages 106, such as web pages 106A, 106B, . . . 106N (wherein “N” represents any number of web pages greater than zero). The website 104 can include a variety of different web pages 106, and in some examples can include different categories or groups of web pages 106. The server 102 can be a computing device with memory that stores data associated with the web pages 106.

A user device 108 can use a network connection, such as an Internet connection, to exchange data with the server 102. As an example, the user device 108 can send a request for a web page to the server 102, and the server 102 can return data associated with the requested web page to the user device 108. Accordingly, the user device 108 can be configured to render and/or display the web pages 106 of the website 104, based on data received from the server 102. In some examples, the user device 108 can be a mobile phone, as shown in FIG. 1. However, in other examples, the user device 108 can be another type of computing device, such as a personal digital assistant (PDA), a media player, a tablet computer, a gaming device, a smart watch, a personal computer (PC) such as a laptop, desktop, or workstation, or any other type of computing or communication device. The server 102 can interact with multiple user devices, including user device 108, to serve web pages 106 of the website 104 to user devices associated with different users.

The user device 108 may initially load the website 104 from the server 102 via a digital channel 110. As an example, the digital channel 110 may be associated with a link to the website 104 that is displayed via a search engine, on a third-party website, on a social media platform, or any other platform. As another example, the digital channel 110 can be a direct user entry of a URL associated with the website 104 into a web browser on the user device 108. These and other examples of types of digital channels 110 are shown in FIG. 2, and are discussed in more detail below with respect to that figure.

Different web pages 106 of the website 104 may have different content. For example, the website 104 can have a homepage that serves as a broad introduction to the website 104. However, the website 104 can also have many other web pages 106 that are focused on narrower or more specific types of information. Different web pages 106 may include different text and/or images, be associated with different subjects, have different designs or layouts, and/or differ in other ways.

When the user device 108 accesses the website 104 via the server 102, the user device 108 may initially load the homepage of the website 104, or may instead bypass the homepage and directly load another web page 106 of the website 104. For example, when a user performs a search on a search engine, search results displayed via the search engine may include a link to a specific web page 106 within the overall website 104 that best matches search terms entered by the user. Accordingly, the user device 108 may use that link to access the website 104 by loading the specific linked web page 106, thereby bypassing the homepage of the website 104.

The particular web page 106 that the user device 108 first uses to access the website 104 during a visit can be known as an “entry page” or “landing page” for that user device 108. After requesting and loading the entry page, the user device 108 may navigate to other web pages 106 of the website 104. For instance, after loading a particular entry page on the user device 108, a user of the user device 108 may click on a link displayed on the entry page to navigate to a different web page 106 of the website 104. An example of different types of web pages 106 associated with a website, any of which could be an entry page of the website for the user device 108, are shown in FIG. 3 and are described below with respect to that figure.

As will be discussed further below, the same and/or different digital channels may cause user devices to access different entry pages of the website 104. For example, if the digital channel 110 is associated with a search engine, the search engine may display links to either web page 106A or web page 106B depending on search terms entered into the search engine by the user. Accordingly, the same search engine may cause user devices to access different entry pages of the same website 104.

At least some of the web pages 106 can include a call to action (CTA) 112. A CTA 112 can include text, images, video, sounds, and/or other elements that can be presented via the user device 106 as part of a web page. The CTA 112 can be associated with a target user activity, such that a user can engage in the target user activity via the website 104 if the user selects or otherwise engages with at least a portion of the CTA 112. For instance, the CTA 112 can include a portion of text that explains the target user activity and/or attempts to persuade users to engage in the target user activity, as well as a button or other user interface element that, if selected by a user, initiates the target user activity.

As an example, the website 104 may be associated with an insurance company, and the target user activity may be a “quote start” in which a user initiates a process to receive a new insurance quote via the website 104. The insurance quote may be for automobile insurance, homeowner insurance, renter insurance, condominium insurance, life insurance, small business insurance, health insurance, disability insurance, pet insurance, or any other type of insurance offered via the website 104. In this example, the CTA 112 may include an image link or text link that reads “Start a Quote,” or any other text, image, and/or other user interface element that, if selected or engaged with via user input, initiates a process by which the user can obtain an insurance quote via the website 104. For instance, if a user clicks on a “Start a Quote” link associated with the CTA 112, a web browser on the user device 108 may be redirected to a different web page 106 designed to accept user input about a home or automobile that the insurance company can use to generate a new insurance quote for the home or automobile.

In other examples, the target user activity may be any other type of user activity that users can engage in via the website 104. For instance, the CTA 112 may be associated with any other type of target user activity, such as paying a bill, performing a search for an insurance agent, initiating an insurance claim, performing a search for a product or service, purchasing a product or service, and/or performing any other desired user activity.

Multiple web pages 106 of the website 104 can include CTAs 112 associated with the same target user activity. However, different web pages 106 may include different types of CTAs 112 associated with the same target user activity. For example, different web pages 106 include different CTAs 112 that explain the same target user activity using different text, images, and/or other user interface elements.

Different web pages 106 may also display CTAs 112 associated with the same target user activity at different positions. For example, the CTA 112 may be displayed relatively close to the top of web page 106A, such that the CTA 112 is visible immediately when web page 106A first loads on the user device 108. However, the CTA 112 may be displayed at a lower position on web page 106B than on web page 106A. For instance, the CTA 112 may not be visible initially when web page 106B first loads on the user device 108, but may become visible on user device 108 once a user scrolls down web page 106B.

As shown in FIG. 1, the website 104 can be associated with a propensity analyzer 114. The propensity analyzer 114 can receive website activity data 116 that includes data associated with interactions between one or more user devices and the website 104. The propensity analyzer 114 can receive the website activity data 116 from the server 102, from a web analytics service such as Adobe® Analytics or Google® Analytics, and/or from any other source configured to monitor interactions between user devices and the website 104. In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can receive the website activity data 116 substantially in real time. In other examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can receive the website activity data 116 on a periodic or occasional basis, such as daily, weekly, or monthly.

The website activity data 116 may indicate which digital channels user devices used to access the website 104, which entry pages the user devices used to access the website 104, whether users associated with the user devices engaged in the target user activity, which web pages 106 the users used to initiate the target user activity, and/or other data about interactions between user devices and the website 104. As an example, whether or not a user engages in the target user activity during a visit to the website 104 may be tracked as a binary value, for instance by storing a value of “1” if the user performed the target user activity or by storing a value of “0” if the user did not perform the target user activity. In other examples, any other type of data can be used to express whether or not a user engages in the target user activity during a visit to the website 104.

In some examples, the website activity data 116 may use cookie information and/or other data to identify activity associated with different categories of users of the website 104. For example, if the website 104 is a website for a company, traffic to the website 104 may include both existing customers of the company as well as users who are not currently customers of the company. The target user activity may be “quote starts” or other activity that may lead non-customers to become customers. The website activity data 116 may separately indicate activity of customers and non-customers, or only include data about non-customers, such that the website activity data 116 can indicate whether the non-customers performed the target user activity during their visits to the website 104.

The propensity analyzer 114 can be configured to analyze the website activity data 116 and determine propensities of different web pages 106 and/or different digital channels to drive users to engage in the target user activity. A propensity can be considered a probability, chance, or likelihood that a user will perform the target user activity during a visit to the website 104.

The propensity analyzer 114 can use a statistical analysis to determine propensities associated with different web pages 106 and/or different digital channels to drive users to engage in the target user activity. The statistical analysis can be based on regression, linear regression, decision tree modeling, and/or other statistical analysis techniques. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 can use a logistic regression model that identifies variables that lead to responses. In some examples, the logistic regression model may use a selection approach, such as forward selection, backward elimination, or stepwise selection. The propensity analyzer 114 can use such statistical analysis to identify and/or estimate the contributions of individual variables, such as individual digital channels and/or individual types of web pages, toward users performing, or not performing, the target user activity during visits to the website 104. Because a user may perform a variety of activities during a visit to the website 104, the statistical model used by the propensity analyzer 114 can consider website activity data 116 that identifies instances of the target user activity and/or other user activities associated with visits to the website.

For example, the propensity analyzer 114 can use a logistic regression formula can to calculate probabilities that the target user activity will happen, based on contributions of different variables. In this example, a dependent variable can be the likelihood of the target user activity occurring, while independent variables may be different digital channels that can drive traffic to the website 104 and/or different types of web pages 106 that users can use as entry pages to the website 104. In some examples, the calculated probabilities can be expressed on a scale of 0 to 1, with 0 indicating that the target user activity is not likely to happen and 1 indicating that the target user activity is likely to happen. In some examples, the statistical model can use a linear logistic model having a form of Log (γ)(Target User Activity)=β₀x+β₁x . . . , where values are beta coefficients that represent slopes of different variables x. The model can also be expresses as log

${\left\lbrack \frac{p}{1 - p} \right\rbrack = {a + {\beta x}}},$ where a is an intercept parameter. The slope values can represent estimates associated with each variable.

In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can use one or more selection techniques to determine which variables, from a set of variables, are not contributing to the target user activity, and omit those variables from consideration within the model. For example, the logistic regression model discussed above may initially consider a set of variables, and the model may iteratively discard any variables that it finds are not sufficiently associated with the target response of whether users did or did not perform the target user activity. Accordingly, the model can keep variables determined to be the best predictors of the target user activity. In some examples, a forward selection technique can be used in which the model begins with zero variables, iteratively adds variables during the analysis, and discards variables from the model that that are determined to have low significance, such as a significance under a threshold value. In other examples, backwards elimination techniques can be used in which the model begins with a set of possible variables, and discards variables that are found to have low significance. A stepwise selection technique can also be used that incorporates both forward selection and backwards elimination. Overall, the selection technique can eliminate low-significance variables from the logistic regression model. Accordingly, statistically-determined estimates of contribution values generated by the propensity analyzer 114 can indicate which digital channels, and/or which types of entry pages, are most likely to drive users to perform the target user activity during their visit to the website 104, and thus have the highest propensities to drive the target user activity. Non-limiting examples of statistical analyses that can be performed by the propensity analyzer 114 are discussed in more detail below with respect to FIG. 5 and FIGS. 8-10.

The propensity analyzer 114 can accordingly generate and/or output website propensity data 118 that includes determined propensities associated with web pages 106, digital channels, and/or combinations of web pages 106 and digital channels. In some examples, the website propensity data 118 generated by the propensity analyzer 114 may also include recommendations for revising one or more web pages 106 and/or digital channels based on relative differences between determined propensities associated with different web pages and/or different digital channels.

As a first example, due to differences in content, placement, and other attributes of CTAs on different web pages 106, some web pages 106 may have a higher propensity than other web pages 106 to drive users to engage in the target user activity. The propensity analyzer 114 can evaluate website activity data 116, as described further below, to determine which web pages 106 are higher-propensity web pages that have relatively high likelihoods of driving users to engage in the target user activity. The propensity analyzer 114 may also determine, from the website activity data 116, that other web pages 106 are lower-propensity web pages that have relatively low likelihoods of driving users to engage in the target user activity. In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can compare the higher-propensity web pages against the lower-propensity web pages to determine differences in content and/or placement of CTAs on those web pages, and output website propensity data 118 that recommends modifying the lower-propensity web pages to have CTAs with the same or similar content and/or placement as the CTAs of the higher-propensity web pages.

As another example, the propensity analyzer 114 may generate, based on an analysis of the website activity data 116, website propensity data 118 that indicates propensities of different types of digital channels to drive users to engage in the target user activity. In some examples, operators of the website may use the website propensity data 118 to identify one or more high-propensity digital channels, and prioritize resources in association with the one or more high-propensity digital channels. For instance, the operators may choose to allocate higher budgets and/or assign more developers to work on the digital channels that the website propensity data 118 indicates have the highest propensities to drive users to engage in the target user activity. Alternatively, or in addition, such operators may use the website propensity data 118 to identify lower-propensity digital channels, and allocate resources to improve the propensities associated with one or more of the identified lower-propensity digital channels.

As still another example, the website propensity data 118 may indicate that a certain web page 106 has a relatively high propensity to drive users to engage in the target user activity, but that search engines are driving more traffic to other lower-propensity web pages 106. In this situation, the website propensity data 118 may indicate that the content and/or design of the high propensity web page 106 should be modified according to search engine optimization strategies, such that search engines begin directing more traffic to the high propensity web page 106. In some examples, the website propensity data 118 may recommend modifying web pages 106 with high propensities, but relatively low traffic, to include content and/or design elements from other higher-traffic web pages 106. For instance, if lower-propensity web pages 106 are receiving more traffic from search engines than higher-propensity web pages 106 due to certain key words, font sizes, image placements, and/or other elements, the website propensity data 118 can recommend modifying the higher-propensity web pages 106 to include the key words, font size, image placements, or other elements that may have been driving search engine traffic to the lower-propensity web pages 106. Accordingly, such changes can cause search engines to direct an increased level of traffic to the identified higher-propensity web pages 106.

As another example, the website propensity data 118 may be an alert or other notification indicating that the propensity of one type of entry page, and/or one type of digital channel, to drive the target user activity has fallen below a predetermined threshold relative to one or more other types of entry pages and/or digital channels. For instance, as web pages 106 are updated over time, the propensity analyzer 114 may determine that propensities of a particular type of web page 106 to drive the target user activity has fallen behind corresponding propensities of other types of web pages 106 to drive the target user activity by more than 10%, or any other threshold. The propensity analyzer 114 can generate website propensity data 118 that includes an alert or other notification indicating that the propensity of the particular type of web page 106 to drive the target user activity is lagging behind corresponding propensities of other types of web pages 106. Such a notification may indicate an opportunity to revise the particular type of web page 106 to increase its propensity to drive the target user activity, for instance to incorporate changes previously made to the other types of web pages 106 that have already increased their propensities to drive the target user activity.

FIG. 2 shows an example of various digital channels 200 that can drive user visits to the website 104. As discussed above, a user of a user device 108 can initially access the website 104 through a digital channel 110. Types of digital channels can include direct load 202, display advertisements 204, email advertisements 206, search engine optimization (SEO) 208, search engine marketing (SEM) 210, social media 212, text advertisements 214, print media 216, and/or other digital channels.

Direct load 202 visits to the website 104 can occur when a user directly enters a URL for the website 104, such as a URL for a homepage of the website 104 or for any other particular web page 106 of the website 104. For example, direct load 202 visits can include visits when a user typed in a URL for the website 104 without being prompted to do so by an advertisement.

Display advertisement 204 visits to the website 104 can occur when a user clicks on a banner advertisement, or other type of advertisement, that was displayed on a different website. Links associated with such display advertisements can cause a web browser on the user's user device to be redirected to a corresponding entry page on the website 104.

Email advertisement 206 visits to the website 104 can occur when a user clicks on a link in an email that redirects the user to an entry page on the website 104. Links in such email advertisements can cause a web browser on the user's user device to be redirected to a corresponding entry page on the website 104.

SEO 208 visits to the website 104 can occur when a user clicks on a link presented as an organic search result within a search engine. For example, when a user enters search terms into a search engine, algorithms of the search engine can cause a list of search results to be displayed. Each search result can be a link to a web page, and the search engine can sort the search results based on various factors such as relevancy of words on the web pages to the search terms, relationships between words on the web pages, how quickly the web pages load, how compatible the web pages are with mobile devices, and/or other factors. Links in such search results can cause a web browser on the user's user device to be redirected to a corresponding entry page on the website 104. Depending on the entered search terms, the search engine may display one or more links to different entry pages of the website 104.

SEM 210 visits to the website 104 can occur when a user clicks on a link associated with a paid advertisement presented in a search engine. For example, although a search engine can display organic search results in response to a user's search query as described above, when the search query matches criteria for a paid advertisement, the paid advertisement can also be displayed alongside the organic search results as sponsored or paid content. Such paid links can cause a web browser on the user's user device to be redirected to a corresponding entry page on the website 104.

Social media 212 visits to the website 104 can occur when a user clicks on a link presented in content or advertisements on a social media website or platform. Such social media links can cause a web browser on the user's user device to be redirected to a corresponding entry page on the website 104.

Text advertisement 214 visits to the website 104 can occur when a user clicks on a link presented in a text message or a multimedia message. Such text message links can cause a web browser on the user's user device to be redirected to a corresponding entry page on the website 104.

Print media 216 visits to the website 104 can occur when a user visits the website 104 in response to viewing an advertisement or other content in a magazine, mailer, or other print media 216. For example, a print advertisement may include a specialized URL associated with the website 104 and/or a corresponding entry page, such that visits to the website 104 that occur based on users entering that specialized URL can be identified as having occurred in response to the print media 216.

FIG. 3 shows an example of various groups of web pages 106 of an example website 300. The example website 300 can be associated with a company that offers products and services in areas such as insurance and finance. The groups of web pages 106 of the example website 300 can include a homepage 302, fire pages 304, auto pages 306, life pages 308, health pages 310, agent pages 312, bank pages 314, finance pages 316, payment pages 318, claim pages 320, search pages 322, quote pages 324, an insurance landing page 326, a multiline landing page 328, and/or groups of other types of web pages 106. As discussed above, a user device 108 can, via a digital channel 110, access a website by requesting a particular web page 106 of the website 104 from the server 102. The particular web page 106 of the website 104 that the user device 108 accesses first via a digital channel 110 can be considered an “entry page” or “landing page” for the user device 108. Accordingly, for the example website 300, the entry page for the user device 108 may be a web page 106 any of the example groups of web pages 106 shown in FIG. 3. The types of web pages 106 shown in FIG. 3 are not intended to be limiting, as the website 300 can include different types and/or groups of web pages, including fewer or more than are shown in FIG. 3. Additionally, in other examples, the systems and methods described herein can be used with other types of websites that have groupings of web pages associated with other types of products and/or services.

The homepage 302 can be a web page 106 that contains an introduction and/or general overview of the website 300. The homepage 302 may contain links to other web pages 106 of the website 300.

Fire pages 304, auto pages 306, life pages 308, and health pages 310 can include one or more web pages 106 that provide information associated with first insurance, automobile insurance, life insurance, and health insurance, respectively. For example, fire pages 304 can display information associated with homeowner's insurance, condominium insurance, and/or renter's insurance. The website 300 may also have other types of web pages 106 associated with other types of insurance.

Agent pages 312 can include one or more web pages 106 associated with insurance agents. For example, agent pages 312 can include web pages 106 for finding an insurance agent, micro websites that include one or more web pages 106 with content about individual insurance agents, web pages 106 for starting an insurance quote with the help of an insurance agent, and/or other agent-related web pages 106.

Bank pages 314 can include one or more web pages 106 associated with banking products and/or services. For example, bank pages 314 can include web pages 106 about checking accounts, saving accounts, credit cards, and/or other banking information.

Finance pages 316 can include one or more web pages 106 associated with financial products or services, such as investments and banking. In some examples, finance pages 316 may include links to bank pages 314, and/or bank pages 314 can link to finance pages 316.

Payment pages 318 can include one or more web pages 106 associated with making payments associated with the website 300. For example, payment pages 318 may allow users to view bills, pay bills, and/or make other types of payments.

Claim pages 320 can include one or more web pages 106 associated with filing new insurance claims, viewing claim information, and/or other claim-related information. In some examples, web pages 106 about claims for fire insurance, auto insurance, life insurance, health insurance, or other types of insurance may be considered to be claim pages 320 rather than fire pages 304, auto pages 306, life pages 308, or health pages 310. However, in other examples, some claim-related web pages 106 can be considered to be fire pages 304, auto pages 306, life pages 308, or health pages 310.

Search pages 322 can include one or more web pages 106 that allow users to search the website 300 and/or view search results. For example, one or more web pages 106 can include a search bar that users can use to enter search terms for a global or targeted search on the website 300, and the search pages 322 can include web pages 106 that display results of such a search.

Quote pages 324 can include one or more web pages 106 associated with insurance quotes. For example, a quote page 324 can allow a user to start a new insurance quote, view an existing quote, allow an agent to start a quote or help start a quote, and/or other quote-related web pages 106. In some examples, the target user activity for the website 300 can be a “quote start.” Other web pages 106 of the website 300 may include CTAs 112 associated with quote starts that, if selected by a user, cause the user's user device to redirect to a quote page 324 that the user can use to obtain a new insurance quote. Accordingly, in these examples, CTAs 112 of the website 300 may attempt to drive users to one or more quote pages 324.

An insurance landing page 326 can be a web page 106 that serves as an overview of offered insurance products and services. For example, the insurance landing page 326 can include links to fire pages 304, auto pages 306, life pages 308, health pages 310, agent pages 312, claim pages 320, quote pages 324, the multiline landing page 328, and/or other insurance-related web pages 106.

A multiline landing page 328 can be a web page 106 that serves as an overview of multiline insurance coverage. For example, the multiline landing page 328 can include content that describes insurance coverage that includes both home and automobile insurance, and/or links to other web pages 106 that more specifically describe home insurance and automobile insurance.

As discussed above with respect to FIGS. 1-3, users may visit a website, such as website 300, by accessing entry pages of the website through various digital channels. Some digital channels may direct users to different entry pages of the website. For example, if a user directly types in a URL for the homepage 302 of the website 300, the entry page for that user can be the homepage 302 during a visit that occurs via the direct load 202 digital channel. However, if the user instead directly types in a URL for an insurance landing page 326, the entry page for the user can instead be the insurance landing page 326 during a visit that occurs via the direct load 202 digital channel. As another example, depending on a user's search query to a search engine, different organic and/or paid search results may be displayed. Accordingly, the user may be directed to different entry pages that correspond to different search terms during visits that occur via the SEO 208 digital channel and/or the SEM 210 digital channel.

The target user activity for the example website 300 can be quote starts. However, some entry pages, and/or the digital channels used to direct users to those entry pages, can be more effective than others at driving users to initiate new insurance quotes. For example, users who arrive on the website 300 at entry pages in a first group of web pages 106 via a first digital channel may have a higher propensity to initiate new insurance quotes, relative to other users who arrive on the website 300 via entry pages in other groups of web pages and/or via other digital channels. The systems and methods described herein can be used to determine propensities of different types of entry pages, different types of digital channels, and/or different combinations of entry pages and digital channels, to drive users to initiate new insurance quotes.

FIG. 4 shows a flowchart of an example method 400 for determining propensities of digital channels to drive a target user activity on a website 104. At block 402, the propensity analyzer 114 can receive website activity data 116. The propensity analyzer 114 can receive the website activity data 116 from the server 102 that hosts the website 104, from a web analytics service, and/or from any other source. The website activity data 116 may indicate which digital channels user devices used to access the website 104, and whether users associated with the user devices engaged in the target user activity during corresponding visits to the website 104.

In some examples, the website activity data 116 may indicate data about activities of one or more categories of users, such as customers and/or non-customers of a company. If the target user activity is an activity intended to convert non-customers into customers, the website activity data 116 may, based on cookie information or other data, identify website activity associated specifically with non-customers. As an example, the process of FIG. 4 can be used to identify when users who are not currently customers of an insurance company perform a target user activity of starting new insurance quotes via the example website 300. In this example, the website activity data 116, or the source of the website activity data 116, may use cookie data or other data to identify visits to the website 300 from existing customers who already have insurance coverage through the company, and as such are less likely to start a new insurance quote. The website activity data 116, or the source of the website activity data 116, may similarly use cookie data or other data to identify visits to the website 300 from users who are not currently customers of the insurance company. Accordingly, in some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 may not receive, or may ignore, website activity data 116 associated the current customers, and may instead analyze the website activity data 116 associated with non-customers during the process of FIG. 4.

At block 404, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the website activity data 116 to identify which digital channels 200 were used to access the website 104 over a period of time. As discussed above, different users may use different digital channels to access the website 104. The propensity analyzer 114 can be configured to determine, from referring page identifiers, cookie data, and/or other information in the website activity data 116, which digital channels were used to access the website 104, and/or how often such digital channels were used to access the website 104. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 may determine which of, and/or how often, various digital channels such as direct load 202, display advertisements 204, email advertisements 206, SEO 208, SEM 210, social media 212, text advertisements 214, and/or print media 216 digital channels shown in FIG. 2 were used to access the website 104. As noted above, in some examples the propensity analyzer 114 can identify website activity data 116 associated with certain categories of users, and/or ignore website activity data 116 associated with categories of users who may not be likely to be associated with the target user activity.

At block 406, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the website activity data 116 to identify instances of the target user activity that occurred on the website 104 after users arrived on the website via the digital channels identified at block 404. The propensity analyzer 114 can also associate and/or correlate instances of the target user activity with corresponding digital channels. For example, if the propensity analyzer 114 determines from the website activity data 116 that a user engaged in the target user activity while on the website 104, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine which type of digital channel was associated with that user's visit to the website 104.

At block 408, the propensity analyzer 114 can perform a statistical analysis on the data identified during blocks 404 and 406 to generate estimates of the propensities of individual digital channels to drive the target user activity. In some examples, the data captured and tracked during blocks 402 through 406 can be stored in a database or other repository over a period of time, such as a day, a week, a month, or any other time period, and a set of data collected over the time period can later be analyzed at block 408.

As discussed above, the statistical analysis can be based on regression, linear regression, decision tree modeling, and/or other statistical analysis techniques. As a non-limiting example, the statistical analysis performed during block 408 can be based on a logistic regression model that uses different digital channels as variables, and identifies contributions of different digital channels to a response associated with the target user activity occurring. Accordingly, the statistically determined estimates of contribution values produced during block 408 can indicate individual and/or relative propensities of different digital channels to drive users to perform the target user activity during visits to the website 104.

In some examples, the statistical analysis performed during block 408 can use a logistic regression model, such as a linear logistic model, that identifies variables that lead to responses. This model can be the same or a similar model described above with respect to FIG. 1, such as a logistic regression model that uses forward selection, backward elimination, or stepwise selection. The variables considered by the logistic regression model can include variables for one or more digital channels. Overall, at block 408 the statistical analysis can identify or estimate the contributions of individual variables, such as individual types of digital channels, toward users performing or not performing the target user activity during their visits to the website 104. Accordingly, the statistically determined estimates of contribution values produced during block 608 can indicate which digital channels are most likely to drive users to perform the target user activity during their visit to the website 104.

At block 410, the propensity analyzer 114 can output website propensity data 118 associated with the digital channels. For example, the website propensity data 118 can identify at least some of the individual and/or relative propensities of different digital channels, determined at block 408, to drive users to perform the target user activity during visits to the website 104.

As an example, FIGS. 5A and 5B show a chart and graph of statistically determined estimates and other values associated with different types of digital channels that can be produced by the propensity analyzer 114 via the method 400 shown in FIG. 4. The propensity analyzer 114 can consider, as variables, a set of digital channels 502A through 502H, and use a logistic model to determine relative propensities associated with digital channels 502A through 502H to drive a target user activity on a website 104, such as quote starts on website 300. Any or all of the information shown in FIGS. 5A and/or 5B, or similar corresponding information, can be output by the propensity analyzer 114 as website propensity data 118 at block 410.

FIG. 5A shows an example chart of estimates and other statistical values associated with the digital channels 502A through 502H, as determined by the propensity analyzer 114 using a logistic model. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine that digital channel 502B is associated with an estimate value of −0.0807, while digital channel 502D is associated with an estimate value of 0.7713. As shown in FIG. 5, in some examples the propensity analyzer 114 can consider other variables, besides digital channels, during the statistical analysis, such as device types of user devices used to access the website 100 as indicated in the website activity data 116.

FIG. 5B shows an example graph, corresponding to the example chart of FIG. 5A, of the propensity estimates of the digital channels 502A through 502H to drive the target user activity. The graph of FIG. 5B visually shows statistically determined estimated contributions of multiple variables, including digital channels 502A through 502H, toward a target user activity. In the graph of FIG. 5B, the data can be normalized such that the graph represents the contributions of each variable if each variable were associated with 1000 visits to the website 104. The graph of FIG. 5B can correspond to an equation derived from the estimates shown in the chart of FIG. 5A, such as:

$\log{\left\lbrack \frac{p}{1 - p} \right\rbrack = {{a + {\beta x}} = {{{- {2.1}}775} - {0.0996_{Ch502A}} - {{0.0}807_{Ch502B}} + 0.2812_{Ch502C} + {{0.7}713_{Ch502D}} - {{1.1}205_{Ch502E}} + {0.0884_{Ch502F}} + {{0.3}574_{Ch502G}} + {{0.0}915_{Ch502H}} - {{0.0}46{4_{Device}.}}}}}$

In some examples, FIGS. 5A and 5B can represent estimates of how likely individual digital channels are to lead to non-customers starting new insurance quotes on website 300. The example data shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B can show that, based on a sample of website activity data collected over a month or other period of time, non-customers visits to website 300 that occurred via digital channels 502C, 502D, and 502G had relatively high likelihoods of resulting in quote starts. However, the example data shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B can also indicate that other non-customer visits to the same website 300 that occurred via digital channels 502A and 502B were relatively unlikely to result in quote starts, and that non-customer visits that occurred via digital channel 502E were extremely unlikely to result in quote starts. Accordingly, website propensity data 118 corresponding to the example data shown of FIGS. 5A and 5B may indicate that the website 300 and/or digital channels should be reviewed and/or revised such that aspects of relatively high-propensity digital channels 502C, 502D, and 502G can be applied to lower-propensity digital channels 502A, 502B, and/or 502E in order to increase the propensities of digital channels 502A, 502B, and/or 502E. Alternatively, such website propensity data 118 may indicate that, because digital channels 502C, 502D, and 502G have the highest propensities to drive quote starts, budgetary resources, development resources, and/or other resources should be prioritized to increase the amount of user traffic to the website 300 that arrives via digital channels 502C, 502D, and/or 502G.

For instance, by normalizing the data to a common number of visits per digital channel, as shown in the example of FIGS. 5A and 5B, digital channels that are effective at driving the target user activity can be identified regardless of the amount of traffic that actually arrives via those digital channels. For example, if the analysis shows that digital channel 502D has a higher propensity than the other digital channels to lead to the target user activity, but that digital channel 502D is not associated with as much user traffic as other digital channels, budgetary or development resources associated with digital channel 502D can be increased in an attempt to increase the amount of user traffic that arrives via high-propensity digital channel 502D.

Overall, the process of FIG. 4 can determine relative propensities of different digital channels to drive the target user activity. For example, the determined propensity data may indicate that visits to the example website 300 that occurred via the SEO 208 and the SEM 210 digital channels had relatively high propensities to lead to quote starts. However, users may arrive at the website 300, via SEO 208 and SEM 210 digital channels, on different entry pages. Some of those entry pages may themselves have higher or lower propensities to lead to the target user activity. However, the method of FIG. 6 can be used to identify propensities of different groups of entry pages to lead to the target user activity. The method of FIG. 7 can also be used to identify propensities of different combinations of digital channels and entry pages to lead to the target user activity.

FIG. 6 shows a flowchart of an example method 600 for determining propensities of entry pages to drive a target user activity on a website 104. At block 602, the propensity analyzer 114 can receive website activity data 116. The propensity analyzer 114 can receive the website activity data 116 from the server 102 that hosts the website 104, from a web analytics service, and/or from any other source. The website activity data 116 may indicate which specific web pages 106 and/or groups of web pages 106 were used by user devices as entry pages to the website 104, and whether users associated with the user devices engaged in the target user activity via the entry pages and/or during corresponding visits to the website 104. As discussed above with respect to FIG. 4, in some examples, the website activity data 116 may indicate data about activities of one or more categories of users, such as customers and/or non-customers of a company. In these examples, the propensity analyzer 114 may not receive, or may ignore, website activity data 116 associated the current customers, and may instead analyze the website activity data 116 associated with non-customers during the process of FIG. 6.

At block 604, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the website activity data 114 to identify which web pages 106 were used as entry pages to the website 100 over a period of time. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 may determine which of, and/or how often, web pages 106 such as the homepage 302, fire pages 304, auto pages 306, life pages 308, health pages 310, agent pages 312, bank pages 314, finance pages 316, payment pages 318, claim pages 320, search pages 322, quote pages 324, the insurance landing page 326, and/or the multiline landing page 328 of the example website 300 shown in FIG. 3 were used as entry pages to website 300. As noted above, in some examples the propensity analyzer 114 can identify website activity data 114 associated with certain categories of users, and/or ignore website activity data 114 associated with categories of users who may not be likely to be associated with the target user activity.

At block 606, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the website activity data 116 to identify instances of the target user activity that occurred on the website 104 after users arrived on the website via the entry pages identified at block 604. The propensity analyzer 114 can also associate and/or correlate instances of the target user activity with corresponding entry pages. For example, if the propensity analyzer 114 determines from the website activity data 116 that a user engaged in the target user activity while on the website 104, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine which specific web page 106, or type of web page 106, that user used as an entry page during the user's visit to the website 104.

At block 608, the propensity analyzer 114 can perform a statistical analysis on the data identified during blocks 604 and 606 to generate estimates of the propensities of individual entry pages, or groups of entry pages, to drive the target user activity. In some examples, the data captured and tracked during blocks 602 through 606 can be stored in a database or other repository over a period of time, such as a day, a week, a month, or any other time period, and a set of data collected over the time period can later be analyzed at block 608.

As discussed above, the statistical analysis can be based on regression, linear regression, decision tree modeling, and/or other statistical analysis techniques. As a non-limiting example, the statistical analysis performed during block 608 can be based on a logistic regression model that uses different types of entry pages as variables, and identifies contributions of different types of entry pages to a response associated with the target user activity occurring. Accordingly, the statistically determined estimates of contribution values produced during block 608 can indicate individual and/or relative propensities of different types of entry pages to drive users to perform the target user activity during visits to the website 104.

In some examples, the statistical analysis performed during block 608 can use a logistic regression model, such as a linear logistic model, that identifies variables that lead to responses. This model can be the same or a similar model described above with respect to FIG. 1, such as a logistic regression model that uses forward selection, backward elimination, or stepwise selection. The variables considered by the logistic regression model can include different groups of entry pages instead or, or in addition to, variables for one or more digital channels. Overall, at block 608 the statistical analysis can identify or estimate the contributions of individual variables, such as individual groups of entry pages, toward users performing or not performing the target user activity during their visits to the website 104. Accordingly, the statistically determined estimates of contribution values produced during block 608 can indicate which groups of entry pages are most likely to drive users to perform the target user activity during their visit to the website 104.

At block 610, the propensity analyzer 114 can output website propensity data 118 associated with the entry pages. The website propensity data 118 can identify at least some of the individual and/or relative propensities of different types of entry pages, determined at block 608, to drive users to perform the target user activity during visits to the website 104. For example, the website propensity data 118 may indicate that one type of entry page has a higher propensity to drive users to perform the target user activity during visits to the website 104 than another type of entry page.

In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can also generate and output website propensity data 118 that recommends one or more changes to one or more web pages 106. For example, if the propensity analyzer 114 determines that a first type of entry page has a higher propensity to drive users to perform the target user activity during visits to the website 104 than a second type of entry page, the propensity analyzer 114 may determine differences between CTAs 112 associated with the first type of entry page and the second type of entry page. If the CTAs 112 differ with respect to content, placement, and/or other attributes on the first type of entry page and the second type of entry, the propensity analyzer 114 can generate website propensity data 118 that includes revision recommendations for the CTAs 112 of the second type of entry page based on the CTAs 112 of the first type of entry page.

As an example, if the higher-propensity first type of entry page has CTAs 112 located at a different position than CTAs 112 on the lower-propensity second type of entry page, the website propensity data 118 may recommend moving the CTAs 112 on the second type of entry page to a position where corresponding CTAs 112 are located on the first type of entry page. For instance, as discussed above with respect to FIG. 1, web page 106A may have a CTA 112 positioned relatively close to the top of web page 106A, while web page 106B has a similar CTA 112 positioned lower that is not visible on the user device 108 until a user scrolls down web page 106B. In this case, if the propensity analyzer 114 determines that web page 106A has a higher propensity to drive the target user activity than web page 106B, the propensity analyzer 114 can identify the differences in placement between the CTAs 112 on web page 106A and web page 106B, and generate website propensity data 118 that recommends moving the CTA 112 on web page 106B to the position the CTA 112 is located on higher-propensity web page 106B. As another example, if the higher-propensity first type of entry page has CTAs 112 that include key words, fonts, font sizes, colors, and/or other content or design elements that are different from CTAs on the lower-propensity second type of entry page, the website propensity data 118 may recommend changing the CTAs 112 on the second type of entry page to include content and/or design elements of corresponding CTAs 112 of the first type of entry page.

In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can automatically implement content and/or design changes of a web page 106 based on the website propensity data 118. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 can adjust Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) code, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) code, and/or other code associated with a web page 106 change the content and/or placement of a CTA 112 and/or other elements based on recommendations generated by the propensity analyzer 114. In some examples, the adjusted code can be automatically generated as a new draft version of the web page 106 by the propensity analyzer 114, and a human developer can determine whether or not to incorporate the automatically-generated version of the web page 106 into the website 104. In other examples, human developers can review revision recommendations for web pages 106 generated by the propensity analyzer 114, and manually revise web pages 106 accordingly.

In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the process of FIG. 6 to, regardless of which digital channels users used to arrive at the website 104, determine relative propensities of different types of entry pages to drive users to perform a target user activity on the website 104. However, in other examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the process of FIG. 6 to determine relative propensities of different types of entry pages to drive users to perform a target user activity on the website 104, in association with a specific type of digital channel. For instance, at block 604, the propensity analyzer 114 may be configured to identify website activity data 116 associated with visits to the website 104 that occurred via one specific digital channel, and to determine entry pages used to access the website 104 that that specific digital channel. Accordingly, the propensity analyzer 114 can use blocks 606 through 608 to determine propensities of different types of entry pages to drive the target user activity, if those entry pages are visited via the specific digital channel being analyzed.

The propensity analyzer 114 can also, or alternately, determine propensities to drive the target user activity that are associated with combinations of digital channels and entry pages. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine which combination of a digital channel and an entry page type has the highest propensity to drive users to perform the target user activity.

FIG. 7 shows a flowchart of an example method 700 for determining propensities of combinations of digital channels and entry pages to drive a target user activity on a website 104. At block 702, the propensity analyzer 114 can receive website activity data 116. The propensity analyzer 114 can receive the website activity data 116 from the server 102 that hosts the website 104, from a web analytics service, and/or from any other source. The website activity data 116 may indicate which specific and/or groups of web pages 106 were used by user devices as entry pages to the website 104, and whether users associated with the user devices engaged in the target user activity on the entry pages and/or during corresponding visits to the website 104. As discussed above with respect to FIGS. 4 and 6, in some examples, the website activity data 116 may indicate data about activities of one or more categories of users, such as customers and/or non-customers of a company. In these examples, the propensity analyzer 114 may not receive, or may ignore, website activity data 116 associated the current customers, and may instead analyze the website activity data 116 associated with non-customers during the process of FIG. 7.

At block 704, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine relative propensities associated with two or more digital channels. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the method 400 described above with respect to FIG. 4 to determine relative propensities of a set of digital channels to drive the target user activity.

At block 706, the propensity analyzer 114 can select one of the digital channels analyzed at block 704. In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine a subset of the digital channels analyzed at block 704 that were determined to have the highest propensities to drive the target user activity. For instance, the propensity analyzer 114 may use propensity data, such as data shown in the examples of FIGS. 5A and 5B, to identify two digital channels with the two highest propensities of driving the target user activity. The propensity analyzer 114 can then select one of the identified highest-propensity digital channels at block 706.

At block 708, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the website activity data 116 to identify which web pages 106 were used as entry pages to the website 104 over a period of time, when such entry pages were accessed via the digital channel selected at block 706. As noted above, different user visits to the website 104 may be initiated via many different entry pages, even if all of them occur via the same digital channel 200. For instance, in the example of FIG. 3, a user who types “auto insurance” into a search engine may be presented with search results including a link to an auto page 306, while another user who types “insurance agent” as a search query may be given search results including a link to an agent page 312. Accordingly, even though both users in this example may arrive at the website 300 via the SEO 208 digital channel based on organic search results, the entry pages for the two users may be in different groups of web pages 106 shown in FIG. 3. Accordingly, if the selected digital channel is the SEO 208 digital channel shown in FIG. 2, the propensity analyzer 114 may determine which of, and/or how often, the entry pages shown in the example of FIG. 3 were associated with user visits that arrived via the SEO 208 digital channel. As noted above, in some examples the propensity analyzer 114 can identify website activity data 116 associated with certain categories of users, and/or ignore website activity data 116 associated with categories of users who may not be likely to be associated with the target user activity.

At block 710, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the website activity data 116 to identify instances of the target user activity that occurred on the website 104 after users arrived on the website via the digital channel selected at block 706 and via the entry pages identified at block 708. The propensity analyzer 114 can also associate and/or correlate instances of the target user activity with corresponding entry pages. For example, if the propensity analyzer 114 determines from the website activity data 116 that a user engaged in the target user activity while on the website 104, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine which specific web page 106, or type of web page 106, that user used as an entry page during the user's visit to the website 104. In some examples, a user may arrive on an entry page in one group of web pages 106, but navigate through the website 104 to web pages 106 in other groups. Accordingly, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the website activity data 116 to determine whether users ultimately performed the target user activity during their visits to the website 104, as well as which entry page those users initially used to access the website 104 during their visits.

At block 712, the propensity analyzer 114 can perform a statistical analysis on the data identified during blocks 708 and 710 to generate estimates of the propensities of individual entry pages, or groups of entry pages, to drive the target user activity, when such entry pages are visited via the digital channel selected at block 706. In some examples, the data captured and tracked during blocks 702-710 can be stored in a database or other repository over a period of time, such as a day, a week, a month, or any other time period, and a set of data collected over the time period can later be analyzed at block 712.

As discussed above, the statistical analysis can be based on regression, linear regression, decision tree modeling, and/or other statistical analysis techniques. As a non-limiting example, the statistical analysis performed during block 712 can be based on a logistic regression model that uses different types of entry pages as variables, and identifies contributions of different types of entry pages to a response associated with the target user activity occurring. Accordingly, the statistically-determined estimates of contribution values produced during block 712 can indicate individual and/or relative propensities of different types of entry pages to drive users to perform the target user activity during visits to the website 104, when such visits occur via the digital channel selected at block 706.

In some examples, the statistical analysis performed during block 712 can use a logistic regression model, such as a linear logistic model, that identifies variables that lead to responses. This model can be the same or a similar model described above with respect to FIG. 1, such as a logistic regression model that uses forward selection, backward elimination, or stepwise selection. However, here the variables considered by the logistic regression model can include different groups of entry pages instead or, or in addition to, variables for one or more digital channels. Overall, at block 712 the statistical analysis can identify or estimate the contributions of individual variables, such as individual groups of entry pages, toward users performing or not performing the target user activity during their visits to the website 104. Accordingly, the statistically determined estimates of contribution values produced during block 712 can indicate which groups of entry pages are most likely to drive users to perform the target user activity during their visit to the website 104.

After determining propensities of entry pages, when visited via a selected digital channel, to drive the target user activity, the propensity analyzer 114 may select a different digital channel at block 706. The propensity analyzer 114 may then repeat blocks 708 through 712 to determine propensities of entry pages, when visited via the different selected digital channel, to drive the target user activity. The propensity analyzer 114 can repeat blocks 706 through 712 for any number of digital channels. For example, if after block 704 the propensity analyzer 114 identified the two digital channels with the highest propensities of driving the target user activity, the propensity analyzer 114 repeat blocks 706 through 712 for each of the identified top two highest propensity digital channels.

At block 714, the propensity analyzer 114 can output website propensity data 118 associated with one or more of the analyzed combinations of digital channels and entry pages. In some examples, the website propensity data 118 may identify a single combination of a digital channel and entry page that has the highest estimated propensity to drive the target user activity. In other examples, the website propensity data 118 may indicate relative propensities associated with multiple combinations of digital channels and entry pages.

As an example, FIGS. 8A and 8B show examples of website propensity data 118 associated with a set of entry pages 802A through 802N when visited via a first digital channel, while FIGS. 9A and 9B show examples of website propensity data 118 associated with the same set of entry pages 802A through 802N when visited via a second digital channel. FIG. 10 displays an example bar graph 1000 that compares website propensity data 118 associated with the set of entry pages 802A through 802N with respect to visits that occurred via the first digital channel and the second digital channel. Any or all of the information shown in FIGS. 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B, and/or 10, or similar corresponding information, can be output by the propensity analyzer 114 as website propensity data 118 at block 714.

In particular, FIG. 8A shows an example chart of estimates and other statistical values associated with the set of entry pages 802A through 802N, as determined by the propensity analyzer 114 using a logistic model based on user traffic that arrived via the first digital channel. FIG. 9A shows a similar example chart of estimates and other statistical values associated with the set of entry pages 802A through 802N, as determined by the propensity analyzer 114 using the logistic model based on user traffic that arrived via the second digital channel.

FIG. 8B shows an example graph, corresponding to the example chart of FIG. 8A, of the propensity estimates of the set of entry pages 802A through 802N to drive the target user activity, when user traffic arrives via the first digital channel. The example graph of FIG. 8B visually shows statistically determined estimated contributions of multiple variables, the various type of entry pages 802A through 802N, toward a target user activity when user traffic arrives via the first digital channel. In the example graph of FIG. 8B, the data can be normalized such that the graph represents the contributions of each variable if each variable were associated with 1000 visits to the website 104 that occurred via the first digital channel. The graph of FIG. 8B can correspond to an equation derived from the estimates shown in the chart of FIG. 8A, such as:

$\log{\left\lbrack \frac{p}{1 - p} \right\rbrack = {{a + {\beta x}} = {{{- {2.9}}862} - {{6.1}356_{Page802A}} + {0.6652_{Page802B}} + {{0.5}090_{Page802C}} - {{0.4}011_{Page802D}} - {{0.1}606_{Page802E}} - {0.7028_{Page802F}} - 0.1685_{Page802G} - {{1.1}516_{Page802H}} - {{0.7}740_{Pa{ge802I}}} - {0.2115_{Page802J}} + {{0.7}393_{Page802K}} + 0.8733_{{Pa}{ge}802L} - {{1.0}204_{Page802M}} + {{0.2}74{1_{Page802N}.}}}}}$

FIG. 9B shows an example graph, corresponding to the example chart of FIG. 9A, of the propensity estimates of the set of entry pages 802A through 802N to drive the target user activity, when user traffic arrives via the second digital channel. The example graph of FIG. 9B visually shows statistically determined estimated contributions of multiple variables, the various type of entry pages 802A through 802N, toward a target user activity when user traffic arrives via the second digital channel. In the example graph of FIG. 9B, the data can be normalized such that the graph represents the contributions of each variable if each variable were associated with 1000 visits to the website 104 that occurred via the second digital channel. The graph of FIG. 9B can correspond to an equation derived from the estimates shown in the chart of FIG. 9A, such as:

${\log\left\lbrack \frac{p}{1 - p} \right\rbrack} = {{a + {\beta x}} = {{{- 1.94}03} - {{5.4}272_{Page802A}} + {0.2299_{Page802B}} + {{0.0}802_{Page802C}} - 0.2637_{Page802D} - {{0.2}4681606_{Page802E}} - {0.5863_{Page802F}} - {{0.6}322_{Page802G}} - {{0.7}217_{Page802H}} - {{0.5}872_{Pa{ge802I}}} - {0.3709_{Page802J}} + {{0.1}699_{Page802K}} + {{0.7}222_{Page802L}} - {{0.5}356_{Page802M}} + {{0.1}54{6_{Page802N}.}}}}$

In some examples, FIGS. 8A and 8B can represent estimates of how likely individual types of entry pages 802A through 802N are to lead to non-customers starting new insurance quotes on website 300, if visits to those entry pages 802A through 802N occur via a first one of the digital channels shown in FIG. 2. FIGS. 9A and 9B can represent similar estimates of how likely non-customers are to start new insurance quotes on website 300, if visits to the same entry pages 802A through 802N instead occurred via a second one of the digital channels shown in FIG. 2. FIG. 10 shows an example bar graph 1000 that compares the determined propensities associated with the set of entry pages 802A through 802N for the first digital channel and the second digital channel.

The example website propensity data 118 shown in FIGS. 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B, and/or 10 can indicate that entry pages 802B, 802C, 802K, 802L, and 802N have the highest propensities to drive the target user activity. However, the example website propensity data 118 shown in FIGS. 8A, 8B, 9A, 9B, and/or 10 can also indicates that other types of entry pages were much less likely to result in the target user activity. For examples, the example website propensity data 118 can indicate that users were especially unlikely to engage in the target user activity when the users arrived at the website via entry pages 802A.

The example bar graph 1000 shown in FIG. 10, and/or a comparison of FIGS. 8A and 9B against FIGS. 9A and 9B, can also show that some entry pages have a higher propensity to drive the target user activity when they are visited via the first digital channel than when they are visited via the second digital channel. For instance, the example website propensity data 118 indicates that entry pages 802B have a higher propensity to drive the target user activity when they are visited via the first digital channel than when they are visited via the second digital channel. In some situations, this may indicate that budgetary and/or development resources should be allocated to increasing the number of user visits to entry pages 802B via the first digital channel, and/or that fewer resources should be allocated to the second digital channel.

FIG. 11 shows a flowchart of an example method 1100 for generating revision recommendations for one or more web pages 106 based on determined propensities to drive a target user activity on a website 104.

At block 1102, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine relative propensities of at least two types of entry pages to drive the target user activity. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 can use the methods described above, with respect to FIG. 6 and/or FIG. 7, to determine relative propensities of types of entry pages to drive the target user activity. In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine the relative propensities of the least two types of entry pages to drive the target user activity based on website activity data 116 associated with the same digital channel. In other examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine the relative propensities of the least two types of entry pages to drive the target user activity based on website activity data 116 associated with different types of digital channels.

At block 1104, the propensity analyzer 114 can select a higher-propensity entry page type and a lower-propensity entry page type. The higher-propensity entry page type can be a type of entry page that was determined, at block 1102, to have a higher propensity to drive the target user activity than the lower-propensity entry page type. In some examples, the higher-propensity entry page type can be the type of entry page with the highest propensity determined at block 1102. However, in other examples, the higher-propensity entry page type can be any other type of entry page with a higher propensity to drive the target user activity than the selected lower-propensity entry page type.

At block 1106, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine differences between examples of the selected higher-propensity entry page type and the selected lower-propensity entry page type. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 can compare one or more examples of the higher-propensity entry page type and the selected lower-propensity entry page type to identify differences in content, format, design, placement, and/or other attributes of the web pages 106 that may impact the relative propensities of CTAs 112 on the web pages 106 to drive users to engage in the target user activity.

For example, the propensity analyzer 114 may identify differences in design, content, and/or other attributes of CTAs 112 on the web pages 106 that are driving the target user activity, such as differences in messaging content displayed on the web pages 106, locations and sizes of content of CTAs 112 on the web pages 106, navigation options present on the web pages 106, load times of the web pages, the presence or lack of images on the web pages 106, whether the web pages 106 are optimized for display on mobile devices, and/or any other attributes. In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 may use website analytics and/or replay functionality to replay navigation movements of users through the website 104 to help understand how users progressed from arriving at an entry page to performing or not performing the target user activity.

At block 1108, the propensity analyzer 114 can generate revision recommendations to adjust lower-propensity entry pages based on differences with the higher-propensity entry pages. Such revision recommendations can be included in website propensity data 118 output by the propensity analyzer 114 at block 1110. For example, if the propensity analyzer 114 identifies differences between content and/or design elements of higher-propensity entry pages and lower-propensity web pages, the propensity analyzer 114 can generate recommendations to revise the lower-propensity web pages based on the content and/or design elements of higher-propensity entry pages. This can include a revision recommendation to adjust CTAs 112 of the lower-propensity web pages to be positioned at a location of CTAs 112 on the higher-propensity entry pages, to include key words or other content of CTAs 112 on the higher-propensity entry pages, to be formatted with colors, fonts, font sizes, and/or other design elements of CTAs 112 on the higher-propensity entry pages, and/or other suggestions.

As a non-limiting example, the propensity analyzer 114 may determine that life pages 308 have a higher propensity to drive quote starts on the example website 300 than fire pages 304. The propensity analyzer 114 may also determine at block 1106 that the life pages 308 use CTAs 112 that include the term “free insurance quote,” while the fire pages 304 instead use the term “insurance quote” without indicating that such a quote would be provided for free by the website 300. The propensity analyzer 114 may accordingly determine or predict that the additional word “free” may be helping to drive users to start quotes, and generate a recommendation to revise CTAs 112 on the fire pages 304 to include the word “free,” or otherwise emphasize that quotes are free. Digital channels 200 can similarly be revised based on such an analysis, such as by revising SEM advertisements with paid links to fire pages 304 to emphasize “free” quotes.

In some examples, the propensity analyzer 114 can use machine learning or other forms of artificial intelligence to automatically identify or predict which elements of higher-propensity entry pages are driving the target user activity, and/or to generate corresponding revision recommendations for lower-propensity entry pages that are predicted to increase the propensities of such entry pages to drive the target user activity. For example, the propensity analyzer 114 can identify a content or design element on a higher-propensity entry page as a candidate element that may be driving the target user activity. In these examples, experiments can be performed in which lower-propensity entry pages are revised to include that content or design element, such that the propensity analyzer 114 can determine if the revisions improve the propensities of the revised web pages to drive the target user activity. Over time, machine learning techniques can determine correlations of such design and/or content changes, to changes in the propensities of the entry pages to drive the target user activity. Accordingly, types of changes identified by such machine learning techniques as being predictive of increases in propensities to drive the target user activity can be applied to other web pages.

In some examples, such machine learning or other artificial intelligence can automatically revise lower-propensity entry pages. In other examples, machine learning or other artificial intelligence may make revision recommendations that are predicted to improve the propensity of certain groups of web pages to drive the target user activity, and human web page designers can then choose to accept or implement the revision recommendations by revising the web pages according to the revision recommendations. In still other examples, machine learning or other artificial intelligence may automatically generate revised drafts of web pages based on revision recommendations predicted to increase their propensities to drive the target user activity, and human reviewers can review and/or approve the automatically-generated revised drafts for use in the website 104. In yet other examples, revisions and/or experimentation can be manually performed based on the revision recommendations included in website propensity data 118 output by the propensity analyzer 114.

As discussed above, the propensity analyzer 114 can determine relative propensities associated with different types of entry pages by normalizing the data to a common number of visits per type of entry page. Accordingly, the types of entry pages that are effective at driving the target user activity can be identified regardless of the amount of traffic that actually arrives via those entry pages. For instance, the propensity analyzer 114 may determine that life pages 308 have a higher propensity to drive quote starts than fire pages 304. However, the life pages 308 may receive relatively little user traffic relative to the fire pages 304. Nevertheless, the propensity analyzer 114 can generate revision recommendations for revising the higher-traffic fire pages 304 that are predicted to increase propensities of the fire pages 304 to drive quote starts based on content and/or design elements of the lower-traffic, but higher-propensity, life pages 308.

The systems and methods described herein can also be used to make other types of content and/or design changes to lower-propensity web pages 106 and/or digital channels 200, based on content and/or design elements on higher-propensity web pages 106 and/or digital channels 200. For example, for the SEO 208 digital channel, a search engine's algorithms may present organic search results in an order determined by many factors such as content on the web page 106, relationships between words or other content on the web pages 106, how quickly the web page 106 loads, how accessible the web page 106 is on mobile devices, and/or other factors. The propensity analyzer 114 may determine that a certain type of web page 106 has a relatively high propensity to drive the target user activity, in association with the SEO 208 digital channel, because that type of web page 106 arranges relevant content closer together or has fewer images such that the web pages load more quickly than other types of web pages. Accordingly, the propensity analyzer 114 can indicate that such content and/or design aspects of the high propensity web page 106 should be applied to lower-propensity web pages 106, based on a prediction that such changes will increase the propensities of the SEO 208 digital channel to drive users to those web pages 106 and/or increase the propensities of those web pages 106 to drive the target user activity.

Additionally, data sets and statically generated propensity estimates can be tracked and compared over time as changes are made to web pages 106 and/or digital channels. For example, if a first type of change to the content or design or a web page 106 increases the propensity of that web page 106 to drive the target user activity during a subsequent time period relative to a previous time period, while a second type of change has less of an effect on the propensity to drive the target user activity, the propensity analyzer 114 can identify the first type of change as being more effective. Accordingly, in some cases, the propensity analyzer 114 can predict that that first type of change, if applied to other groups of web pages 106, may also improve their propensities to drive the target user activity, and generate recommendations to similarly revise the other groups of web pages 106. As such, over time, different types of optimizations can be compared and contrasted to determine which are most effective at improving propensities to drive the target user activity. In some examples, machine learning or other artificial intelligence can be used to, over time, identify and/or predict types of changes that can increase propensities of web pages 106 to drive the target user activity.

Although some examples described above focus on quote starts as the target user activity, the same or a similar analysis can be performed based on any other target user activity. For example, if the target user activity is bill payments via the website 104, the systems and methods described herein can determine which digital channels 200 have the highest propensities for leading users to pay bills, and/or which groups of entry pages have the highest propensities for leading users to pay bills. Accordingly, based on such an analysis, content and/or design elements of pages and digital channels that have higher propensities for driving users to pay bills can be applied to other pages and digital channels that have lower propensities for driving users to pay bills.

As other examples, if the target user activity is finding or searching for insurance agents, starting an insurance claim, or performing any other desired activity, the systems and methods described herein can determine which digital channels 200 and/or groups of entry pages have the highest propensities for leading users to perform that target user activity. As such, based on this analysis, content and/or design elements of web pages 106 and digital channels that have higher propensities for driving the target user activity can be applied to other web pages 106 and digital channels that have lower propensities for driving the target user activity.

In some examples, the techniques described herein can be used to evaluate entry pages and/or digital channels 200 with respect to a set of different target user activities on a website 104. For example, the systems and methods described herein may indicate that a group of entry pages has a high propensity of driving quote starts, but has a lower propensity of driving users to search for an insurance agent. As another example, the analysis may show that the homepage 302 of the example website 300 has a high likelihood of driving quote starts regardless of which digital channel 200 leads users to the website 300. However, the analysis may also show that the homepage 302 is relatively likely to lead users to search for insurance agents when the users arrived via the SEO 208 digital channel, but is relatively unlikely to lead users to search for insurance agents when the users arrived via the direct load 202 digital channel. This may indicate that the SEO 208 digital channel is a valuable driver of agent searches and thus that investment in the SEO 208 digital channel should continue or increase.

Additionally, although the examples described above are discussed in terms of digital channels 200 that lead users to different entry pages of a website 104, the same or similar processes can be used to determine propensities associated with other types of digital properties. For example, a company may have a website 104 and a mobile application that contains similar information and/or functionality as the website 104. Accordingly, the systems and methods described herein may also be used to determine the propensities of different portions or sections of the mobile application to drive the target user activity within the mobile application.

FIG. 12 depicts an example system architecture for a computing device 1200 in accordance with various examples. The computing device 1200 can include one or more servers, computers, or other computing elements. In some examples, the computing device 1200 can be the server 102 that hosts the website 104. However, in other examples, the computing device 1200 can be one or more separate computing devices that receive the website activity data 116 associated with the website 104.

As shown, the computing device 1200 can have memory 1202 storing the website activity data 116, the propensity analyzer 114, and/or other modules and data 1204. The propensity analyzer 114 can be configured to perform the statistical analysis, machine learning, and/or other computations described above to, based on the website activity data 116, determine propensities of digital channels and/or web pages 106 to drive users to perform a target user activity during visits to the website 104. The other modules and data 1204 can be utilized by the computing device 1200 to perform or enable performing any action taken by the computing device 1200.

Any such non-transitory computer-readable media may be part of the computing device 1200.

In various examples, the processor(s) 1206 can be a central processing unit (CPU), a graphics processing unit (GPU), or both CPU and GPU, or any other type of processing unit. Each of the one or more processor(s) 1206 may have numerous arithmetic logic units (ALUs) that perform arithmetic and logical operations, as well as one or more control units (CUs) that extract instructions and stored content from processor cache memory, and then executes these instructions by calling on the ALUs, as necessary, during program execution. The processor(s) 1206 may also be responsible for executing all computer applications stored in the memory 1202, which can be associated with common types of volatile (RAM) and/or nonvolatile (ROM) memory.

The communication interfaces 1208 can include transceivers, modems, interfaces, antennas, and/or other components that can transmit and/or receive data over networks or other data connections.

The display 1210 can be a liquid crystal display or any other type of display commonly used in computing devices 1200. For example, a display 1210 may be a touch-sensitive display screen, and can then also act as an input device or keypad, such as for providing a soft-key keyboard, navigation buttons, or any other type of input. The output devices 1212 can include any sort of output devices known in the art, such as a display 1210, speakers, a vibrating mechanism, and/or a tactile feedback mechanism. Output devices 1212 can also include ports for one or more peripheral devices, such as headphones, peripheral speakers, and/or a peripheral display. The input devices 1214 can include any sort of input devices known in the art.

 1. A method, comprising: receiving, by one or more processors, website activity data indicative of use of a website by one or more user devices; identifying, by the one or more processors and based on the website activity data, instances of a target user activity occurring during visits to the website that originate via one or more digital channels; determining, by the one or more processors and based on the website activity data, respective propensities, of combinations of the one or more digital channels and one or more entry pages of the website, to drive the target user activity during visits to the website; identifying, by the one or more processors and based on the respective propensities: a first combination, of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages, associated with a first propensity to drive the target user activity; and a second combination, of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages, associated with a second propensity to drive the target user activity, wherein the second propensity is higher than the first propensity; and generating, by the one or more processors, a revision recommendation indicative of one or more changes to the first combination, based on one or more attributes of the second combination, that are predicted to increase the first propensity.
 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the revision recommendation is a recommended change to content, placement, or design elements of a call to action (CTA), associated with the target user activity, on an entry page of the first combination.
 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the recommended change is to change the CTA on the entry page based on one or more of: second content of a second CTA on a second entry page of the second combination, a second placement of the second CTA on the second entry page, or second design elements of the second CTA on the second entry page.
 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising: determining, by the one or more processors, one or more differences between the first combination and the second combination; and generating, by the one or more processors, the revision recommendation based on the one or more differences.
 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising generating, by the one or more processors, without human input, a revised draft of an entry page of the first combination based on the revision recommendation.
 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising identifying, by the one or more processors and based on the respective propensities, a combination of a digital channel and an entry page type that is associated with a highest propensity, among the respective propensities, to drive the target user activity.
 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the first combination and the second combination are associated with a common digital channel of the one or more digital channels.
 8. The method of claim 1, wherein determining the respective propensities comprises using a logistic regression model to determine, by the one or more processors, relative contributions of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages of the website to drive the target user activity during visits to the website.
 9. One or more computing devices, comprising: one or more processors; memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more computing devices to perform operations comprising: receiving website activity data indicative of use of a website by one or more user devices; identifying, based on the website activity data, instances of a target user activity occurring during visits to the website that originate via one or more digital channels; determining, based on the website activity data, respective propensities of a set of entry pages of the website to drive the target user activity during visits to the website; identifying, based on the respective propensities: a first entry page type associated with a first propensity to drive the target user activity; and a second entry page type associated with a second propensity to drive the target user activity, wherein the second propensity is higher than the first propensity; and generating a revision recommendation indicative of one or more changes to the first entry page type or at least one of the one or more digital channels, based on at least one of content or design elements of the second entry page type that are predicted to increase the first propensity.
 10. The one or more computing devices of claim 9, wherein the revision recommendation is a recommended change to a call to action (CTA), associated with the target user activity, on one or more web pages of the first entry page type.
 11. The one or more computing devices of claim 9, wherein the operations further comprise: determining one or more differences between the first entry page type and the second entry page type; and generating the revision recommendation based on the one or more differences.
 12. The one or more computing devices of claim 9, wherein the operations further comprise generating, without human input, a revised draft of one or more web pages of the first entry page type based on the revision recommendation.
 13. The one or more computing devices of claim 9, wherein the operations further comprise identifying, based on the respective propensities, an entry page type that is associated with a highest propensity, among the respective propensities, to drive the target user activity.
 14. The one or more computing devices of claim 9, wherein the first entry page type and the second entry page type are associated with a common digital channel of the one or more digital channels.
 15. The one or more computing devices of claim 9, wherein determining the respective propensities comprises using a logistic regression model to determine relative contributions of the one or more digital channels and the set of entry pages to drive the target user activity during visits to the website.
 16. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations, comprising: receiving website activity data indicative of use of a website by one or more user devices; identifying, based on the website activity data, instances of a target user activity occurring during visits to the website that originate via one or more digital channels; determining, based on the website activity data, digital channel propensities of the one or more digital channels to drive the target user activity during visits to the website; determining, based on the website activity data, entry page propensities of a set of entry pages of the website to drive the target user activity during the visits to the website; determining, based on the digital channel propensities and the entry page propensities, respective propensities of combinations of the one or more digital channels and one or more entry pages of the website to drive the target user activity; identifying, based on the respective propensities: a first combination, of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages, associated with a first propensity to drive the target user activity; and a second combination, of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages, associated with a second propensity to drive the target user activity, wherein the second propensity is higher than the first propensity; and generating a revision recommendation indicative of one or more changes to the first combination, based on one or more attributes of the second combination, that are predicted to increase the first propensity.
 17. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 16, wherein the revision recommendation is a recommended change to a call to action (CTA), associated with the target user activity, on an entry page of the first combination.
 18. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 16, wherein the operations further comprise: determining one or more differences between the first combination and the second combination; and generating the revision recommendation based on the one or more differences.
 19. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 16, wherein the operations further comprise generating, without human input, a revised draft of an entry page of the first combination based on the revision recommendation.
 20. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media of claim 16, wherein determining the respective propensities comprises using a logistic regression model to determine relative contributions of the one or more digital channels and the one or more entry pages of the website to drive the target user activity during visits to the website.
